Lotus Lantern by Lin Huiyin ~ 林徽因 《莲灯》 with English Translations

作品原文

林徽因 《莲灯》

如果我的心是一朵莲花,
正中擎出一支点亮的蜡,
荧荧虽则单是那一剪光,
我也要它骄傲的捧出辉煌。
不怕它只是我个人的莲灯,
照不见前后崎岖的人生——
浮沉它依附着人海的浪涛
明暗自成了它内心的秘奥。
单是那光一闪花一朵——
像一叶轻舸驶出了江河——
宛转它漂随命运的波涌
等候那阵阵风向远处推送。
算做一次过客在宇宙里,
认识这玲珑的生从容的死,
这飘忽的途程也就是个——
也就是个美丽美丽的梦。

Lotus Lantern
Lin Huiyin

If my heart were a lotus,
From which bearing a flame of candle,
Though glimmering slightly,
I would still make it shining and be proud of radiance.
I do not care that it’s only my personal lotus lantern
That wouldn’t shine all along the rough way of life
In ups and downs; it drifts along the surge of people,
With light and shade being its inner mystery.
A flash of light, a single flower
As a canoe sailing out of a river,
It trips and falls with the wave of destiny,
Waiting for the blowing of a gust of wind,
Considered as a passerby one in the universe.
I realize the delicate living and deliberate dying,
The drifting process means
A beautiful, beautiful dream.
